top djs but very dodgy haircuts........but it was the 80s ..............loved their slogan .......rock not pop:thumbsup:

my other half knew them both mick and des they were present at the opening night at the rock palace in bradford she last saw them or at least mick bailey inmeadowhall about 4yrs ago and he said that they were supposed to be releasing an album but cant remember the title

I see either or both of them at every rock gig I go to. They look exactly the same as they did in the 80s.
Remember the coffin on stage and the pretend flying Vs? They were ace as comperes at the Motorhead/Ozzy gig at Port Vale way back.. (I think thats where I saw em?)

One of them lives in Killamarsh.

I last saw them at the Monsters of Rock concert at Castle Donnington 87 where they were comperes. The only problem was every time they came on the bottles flew.

He he! I was at Donnington that year too. They didn't get anywhere near the bottling that was reserved for Jonathan King though, as I recall!

i have a cheesy album "presented" by them :)

iv seen em yep they are both alive and well,still in their own timewarp:hihi:

I remember these guys one lived near a friend of mine, they were often to be seen on the doorstep with mic's making a racket, I used to play pool with one of them in the Steelmelters Arms in Killamarsh in the 80's, nice guys.

Yes they are still alive and kicking. See Mick quite a lot but not Dez. Can you remember the coffin, the cross and the hand with the flashing ring?? We made them when we used to do the Hammersmith in London and Derby, those were the days.:thumbsup:

One of them is a window cleaner with a gang of others he does some houses on my road.

I used to go to the 'Rockhouse' in Derby.
They used to play the beastie boys 'you gotta fight for your right to paaaaarty'
when the rockhouse was under threat of closure.

I remember them at Brookhouse colliery too, one or both was a sparky if i remember right.

one still lives in killamarsh - big leeds fan. the other had a little trouble with the law if my memory serves me right.

which one ? the tall one Des or the little one Mick?
The small one he stands on a pop crate to do the downstairs windows

I think I saw the little one a few weeks ago, sat round an ornimental fish pond in killamarsh holding a fishing rod with Leeds united scarfs tied round his wrist. A PAIR OF F**KING FREAKS. Top rock kings my arse:loopy: :loopy: :loopy: :mad: :mad: :mad:

The Bailey Brothers album was called Judgement Day. The band is Baileys Comet. They went on tour with Tony Martin (Ex Black Sabbath) fronting the band. Dez wrote the album and produced it. Frontiers released it in Europe and it was released in Japan. they write for rockunited.com Fireworks rock magazine in the UK and Rock It magazine in Germany etc They have their own web site and you can find them all over the net.
They are still alive!

Bit of a blast from the past...

I was thinking of family holidays when I was a kid and we used to stay with my Great Aunt Edith who's their Mum who moved to Mablethorpe. I haven't seen them for a good 20 years but kept up with the odd thing here and there through family. On the offchance I Googled them and this was the first hit..

The Biog makes a good read (though think the sites a few years old). Well for us nosey family peeps lol. I suppose that makes them my second cousins? My Nans sisters kids? Something like that....

Found them on MySpace too
